The NBA Finals are on, and it is keeping the fans on the edge of their seats. With two of the best teams this season, the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Indiana Pacers, the finals are turning out to be a spectacle. While most fans, and even some critics, thought it would be a cakewalk for the Pacers, the reality turned out to be different.

Even after Game 3, the finals are looking like pretty much anyone’s game. Thus, as Game 4 approaches, the fans will wait with bated breath for what comes next.

The Indiana Pacers have been quite the surprise package this season. Despite the towering presence of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in the opponent camp, they have continued to defy expectations. In the initial game, everything looked sorted for the Thunder. That was until the last minute when Tyrese Haliburton decided to wear his superhero cape. With a clutch buzzer beater, Haliburton steered the Pacers to a 1-0 lead. Although the Thunder returned strongly to level the series in Game 2, the Pacers got back to work again. 

With Tyrese Haliburton leading the way again, the Pacers dropped a 116-107 victory. While Haliburton dropped 22 points, Pascal Siakam supported him with 21 points. And that’s not all. The Pacers’ team effort was on full display as Bennedict Mathurine dropped 27 points to seal the game. Surely, with the Pacers leading 2-1, one more win will give them a significant edge over the Thunder. Meanwhile, the Thunder would like to come back with yet another strong response and tie the series again.
